# Configuration for Laptop Mode Tools
# -----------------------------------
#
# There is a "system" to the configuration setting names:
# CONTROL_something=0/1 Determines whether Laptop Mode Tools controls
# something
# LM_something=value Value of "something" when laptop mode is active
# NOLM_something=value Value of "something" when laptop mode is NOT
# active
# AC_something=value Value of "something" when the computer is running
# on AC power
# BATT_something=value Value of "something when the computer is running
# on battery power
#
# There can be combinations of LM_/NOLM_ and AC_/BATT_ prefixes, but the
# available prefixes are different for each setting. The available ones are
# documented in the manual page, laptop-mode.conf(8). If there is no LM_/
# NOLM_ in a setting name, then the value is used independently of laptop
# mode state, and similarly, if there is no AC_/BATT_, then the value is used
# independently of power state.
#
# Some options only work on ACPI systems. They are marked ACPI-ONLY.
#
# Note that this configuration file is a fragment of bash shell script: you
# can use all the features of the bash scripting language to achieve your
# desired configuration.
#
#
# IMPORTANT: Laptop Mode Tools modules have separate configuration files, that
# can be found in /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d. Please look through these
# configuration files as well!

# When to enable laptop mode
# --------------------------
#
# "Laptop mode" is the mode in which laptop mode tools makes the computer
# consume less power. This includes the kernel "laptop_mode" feature, which
# allows your hard drives to spin down, as well as various other settings which
# can be tweaked by laptop mode tools. You can enable or disable all of these
# settings using the CONTROL_... options further down in this config file.

#
# Data loss sensitive features include:
# - laptop_mode (i.e., delayed writes)
# - hard drive write cache
#
# All of the options that follow can be set to 0 in order to prevent laptop
# mode tools from using them to stop data loss sensitive features. Use this
# when you have a battery that reports the wrong information, that confuses
# laptop mode tools.

# Syslog configuration control
# ----------------------------
#
# Syslog daemons have a tendency to sync their log files when entries are
# written to them. This causes disks to spin up, which is not very nice when
# you're trying to save power. The syslog.conf can be tweaked to *not* sync
# a given file, by prepending the log file name with a dash, like this:
#
# mail.* -/var/log/mail/mail.log
#
# Using the following options, you can let laptop mode switch between
# different syslog configurations depending on whether you are working on
# battery or on AC power. To set this up, start by configuring these options
# for your syslog daemon, and then run lm-syslog-setup to create the various
# files. Then edit the laptop mode-specific syslog configuration files to
# remove the syncs only when laptop mode is active.
###############################################################################

# LCD brightness settings
# -----------------------
#
# Using these settings, you can make laptop mode tools automatically adjust
# your LCD's brightness settings. The settings are extremely simple -- they
# only allow for the execution of a command, nothing more. The reason for this
# is that LCD brightness settings are very different between laptop vendors.
#
# Suggestions for commands:
#
# * If your system has the file "/proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD/brightness" (VID may
# be VID1 or similar), use this file as BRIGHTNESS_OUTPUT, and use
# the command "echo <value>". The possible values can be listed using the
# command:
#
# cat /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD/brightness
#
# * If you have a file /sys/class/backlight/.../brightness, then you can use
# that file as BRIGHTNESS_OUTPUT, and the command "echo <value>".
#
# As far as I understand it the values are between 0 and
# the value contained in the file /sys/class/backlight/.../max_brightness.
#
# * For Toshiba laptops, use the command "toshset" with the -lcd or -inten
# command. Read the toshset(1) manual page for more information on the
# parameters for this command. If you use this command, set
# BRIGHTNESS_OUTPUT to "/dev/null".
